Access: [10.4.1.2]: form control default text invalid (null) (Priority 3)

[edit]

Cause:

Default text for all <input> form controls must include an actual value. Null (i.e. value="") is not valid default text but using placeholder characters (i.e. value="****") is acceptable. Placing default text in form fields enables keyboard users to insert a cursor into placeholder text and enter their own data.

[edit]

Example:
